Today was probably one of my favorite days ever. Not only did we win our soccer game, which always makes me happy, but I got to play kickball and Ultimate Frisbee. All in the same night! Talk about sweet. That's not the whole reason why I'm so happy though.
One of the reasons I am so happy is that I've finally noticed myself going out of my comfort zone, and talking to those kids I usually wouldn't think of associating with. I've noticed myself starting to just be something I've been called to be, and I just ask that it would be continuous. I want to continue being the light I've been recently. That's one thing I love the changes that Christ makes in my life. It's the best thing that can ever happen to someone. The change that Christ makes in you. Amazing to see.
Another reason I'm in a good mood is just the fact that I've had so many blessings come upon me lately. For example, Friday night, a few friends of mine, and myself were going to go to Winter Jam. Well, none of us got in, so we just went to their church, and had a little party. It was awesome. I got to see a few kids I haven't seen in a while, I got to meet a few people, and I got to hang out with the people who I consider some of my best friends, and love to death. Like, seriously, I would take a bullet for those people. Anyway, there are just so many things I could talk about from that.
One of my other blessings is that in around 2 months, I finally get the chance to get baptized. I didn't know much about it, but I have been wanting to get baptized for a while. A few of my good friends and I who have yet to be baptized are going to go into it together, and that's the beauty of it. We're all in this together. I've had the great opportunity to go through life with amazing people. Now, I get to outwardly show what Christ has done for me. :) I'm so excited!
I've been blessed with the fact that God is making Himself known to me. There are so many places I've gone where Christ is just booming throughout the place. I can honestly say there is only one place that I have ever been that has shown me Christ more than what I have gotten to see in the past few weeks. Of course that would be Rockbridge.I just think it's amazing that no matter how many times I have been told that it's finally coming true for me right now. I' starting to feel that natural, "high off life" feeling I haven't really felt in the longest time. It's just one of those times where you know that God always comes in when He knows that you need it the most. I love that
That's all for now my dear friends :) I hope you all have an amazing week :)
Love you guys
TJ
